N-propan-2-ylglycine

Description:
N-propan-2-ylglycine, also known as isopropylglycine, is an amino acid derivative characterized by its structure, which includes a propan-2-yl group attached to the nitrogen of the glycine backbone. This compound is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, meaning it is not incorporated into proteins during translation. It exhibits properties typical of amino acids, such as the ability to form zwitterions, where it has both a positive and a negative charge at physiological pH. N-propan-2-ylglycine is soluble in water, which is a common characteristic of amino acids due to their polar functional groups. It may play a role in various biochemical pathways and has been studied for its potential applications in pharmaceuticals and biochemistry. Additionally, it can act as a building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules. Safety data indicates that, like many organic compounds, it should be handled with care, as its effects on health and the environment depend on concentration and exposure.
